PGCE with QTS Secondary Physical Education

Bristol, UWE

Study a PGCE that enables you to use your passion for sport to shape the lives of secondary school children. After graduating as a qualified PE teacher, you'll design your own lessons that bring sport and physical activity to life. The Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) Secondary Physical Education is a one-year course that leads to Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). You'll train to become a Physical Education teacher for the secondary age range (11-16). You'll gain 60 academic credits at Master's level as part of the course. Teaching is both a challenging and a rewarding career with a high level of job satisfaction. It is a great privilege, as well as a great responsibility, to play such a key role in young people's lives. We focus on supporting our trainees to thrive, and we do this alongside teachers and mentors in school. We also facilitate you to collaborate with your peers, and to graduate with a ready-made, supportive professional network. All our courses are future-facing and underpinned by a strong values base. Our provision directly addresses education for sustainable futures. We equip you to be able to work thoughtfully, creatively and successfully with your learners. At UWE Bristol, we're committed to training reflective, innovative, and adaptable teachers for the future.
